Chapter 23
“Look at what your PR officer did to me.
”
In Stella’s absence, Vivien felt free to spin many lies.
Save for earlier, Matthew always took her side.
Vivien was sure that the bruise would arouse his sympathy, so she continued to complain, “She was so rude to me.
She called my unprintable names and also said that my career was dead.
As if that wasn’t enough, she said that I didn’t deserve to be here.

For good measure, she held her chest with her other hand and forced a tear.
She also managed to make her voice shaky.
Matthew glanced at Vivien with an indifferent expression.
Having known her for years, he could tell that she was only putting up an act now.
When Matthew got bored of listening to her lies, he said coldly, “You are a public figure, so you should act right in public.
Don’t cause a scene here.
Otherwise, I’ll get you thrown out.
”
Vivien’s jaw went slack.
Only moments ago, she thought that Matthew would punish Stella on her behalf.
This direct opposite response of his was like a punch to her gut.
At this time, she noticed that someone was watching them.
Her face flushed with embarrassment.
She hated Stella even more.
She gritted her teeth while cursing in her mind.
Matthew was being mean to her.
And it was all because of Stella.
“You know what? You should go home now.
I’ll ask my driver to take you,” Matthew suddenly said.
Vivien decided that if she must leave, she had better leave with him.
So, she pleaded, “Can you go with me? I don’t want to be left alone.
”
“You won’t be alone.
It’s either you allow the driver take you home or you wait here for your agent.
It’s your call.
” Matthew’s decision was loud and clear.
Vivien was embarrassed.
Through clenched jaws, she said in a low voice, “In that case, I’ll go with your driver.
”
Matthew wasted no time calling the driver over and then sent her off.
As he looked away, his mind went down memory lane to how he first came to know Vivien.
Years ago, when he wasn’t a member of the Clark family, he and his mother were poor and homeless.
The constant sufferings put a strain on his mother’s health.
She did many menial jobs, so she had the body of someone way older.
One day while he was far away from home, his mother fainted when she went out to buy food.
It was Vivien who saw her and rushed her to the hospital.
